Your are all too correct sir but maybe you donβt know this but giant dragonflies actually lived past the carboniferous period and were able to survive into lower oxygen level environments. Scientist think its respiratory system might have been helped by the movements of its wings I canβt remember exactly how but I believe the motion of the wings allowed for something similar to our diaphragm.

Unless they had really good other senses, like smell, echolocation, hearing, detecting vibrations, etc. Then they would be scary as fuck.

I know... I know. but sometimes the scientific illiteracy makes me yell at my computer.

people should watch aron ras series on life it goes more into therapsids and synapsids.

The reason that insect respiratory systems don't work beyond a certain size because of 'diffusion'. Diffusion only works less than a millimeter at best, so without a circulatory system capable of taking a centralized source of oxygen (ex. what the lungs in animals act as) to every tissue in the body using capillary blood vessels, diffusion would simply not work and the animal would die.

The Scutigera Cleopatra looked just like the house centipedes I see in my house and I am about as far away north as you can be from Mexico. Either that article's picture was wrong or their range has expanded. I have actually majored in Biology though and it looks like a 'Common House Centipede'. So I'm pretty sure whoever wrote the article got the wrong picture or they look very similar. Did some quick research and the 'Scutigera cleopatra' is the scientific name for house centipede. So I would infer that its range has spread all over America for making its non-scientific name 'Common House Centipede'

You spoil us.

They said these centipede things were basically blind, so you could easily dodge them probably unless you were incapacitated.

Itβs not a matter of where he grips it. Itβs a simple matter of weight ratios. A 10lb dragonfly could not lift a 75lb German Shepherd.
